Tóm tắt	Embedded mixed methods meta-inference is the process of drawing a single, overarching conclusion by integrating the inferences from a dominant (primary) strand and an embedded (secondary) strand within an embedded mixed methods design. The embedded strand — typically qualitative nested inside a quantitative study, or vice versa — answers a supplemental question, and meta-inference synthesises both strands into one coherent interpretive claim that neither strand could produce alone.	The mixed methods matrix is a systematic framework for classifying, planning, and comparing mixed methods research designs along key dimensions such as timing (concurrent vs. sequential), priority (quantitative- vs. qualitative-dominant), and point of integration. It provides researchers with a structured map to make design decisions explicit, communicate choices transparently, and locate a study within the broader mixed methods typology.
